OK, let's get this out of the way first. I vaguely refer to a brown wash at several point in this guide. Specifically, I am using what is generally referred to as "Marine Juice" (https://youtube.com/shorts/vxfgZKfYCZc). This is a mix of 4 parts Lahmian Medium , 3 parts Dark Tone and 3 parts Reikland Fleshshade .
You could of could just use Agrax Earthshade and thin it with Lahmian Medium . I just prefer this very specific mix for adding general shading to a textures surface.
Wood 1
- Basecoat with Steel Legion Drab .
- Wash with a brown of your choosing. If it is one straight out of the bottle, I would recommend thinning roughly 1:1 with some medium.
- Drybrush heavily with Baneblade Brown .
- Lightly drybrush with Karak Stone .
- Optionally, selectively edge highlight with 1:1 Karak Stone & White if you want to go the extra mile.
Wood 2
- Basecoat with Rhinox Hide .
- Drybrush of Doombull Brown .

Wood 3
- Basecoat with 1:1 Dryad Bark & Mournfang Brown .
- Drybrush with a 1:1 mix of the base colour & Karak Stone .

- Optionally, selectively edge highlight with 2:1 Karak Stone & Wraithbone if you want to go the extra mile.
Wood 4

- Drybrush heavily with 2:1 with Thondia Brown and Steel Legion Drab .
